Yes, Amelia Earhart is named after the famous Amelia Earhart with common ancestry from way back in the 1700's.

Meet Amelia
Airborne traffic reporter Amelia Earhart got her start right here on NewsRadio 850 KOA! Amelia worked as a part-time traffic reporter for KOA while attending school at the University of Colorado in Boulder.
Driving the 98-mile round trip commute between school and work fueled Amelia's desire to report the traffic in a way that is both helpful and efficient for drivers. Nearly three years later, she reports from the sky, the very place where she feels the most comfortable.
Outside of work, Amelia is pursuing her private pilot's license and hopes to one day retrace the flights of her influential namesake. She enjoys horseback riding, painting, yoga and inventing delicious new concoctions in her kitchen.

I suspect that it's just thin spots in the snow where the wind has blown most of the snow away. It's a little hard to be creative about it having spent so much time on frozen lakes.

I believe he's pump-faking a pass and will probably scramble for the first down himself.

I am glad you cleared that up, for a moment there, I thought this article was talking about the Amelia Earhart who was lost on her around the would flight back in the 1930s, and got me thinking that the helicopter was not even invented until 1940.

Amelia is pursuing her private pilot's license and hopes to one day retrace the flights of her influential namesake. She'd better watch out when reenacting that last one. It didn't end up so well.

Maybe they found her long lost relative or her navigator?
